Man shot to death in Norwalk in parked car

The vehicle was parked behind a liquor store in the 12500 block of Rosecrans Avenue, said Sgt. Greg Arnold of the sheriff’s Norwalk station.

He said deputies were flagged down around 11 p.m. by someone who heard gunshots at Rosecrans and Bloomfield avenues.

Deputies found the vehicle and a man shot in the driver’s seat. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Ed Winter, spokesman for the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner, described the man as a Latino in his 30s. He didn’t release the man’s name because the next of kin hasn’t been identified as of Monday.

There were no further details released about the shooting.
